TWO SPLE NDID SEEDLING AZALEAS. 
WILLIAM BARNES 
H AS great pleasure in announcing to his friends and the public that he will be prepared to 
send out, on and after the 15th of October next, his two magnificent Seedling Azaleas, 
BRIDE OF ABYDOS AND PURITY. 
BRIDE OF ABYDOS is a splendid white, striped and splashed with pink, of fine 
vigorous growth, and an abundant bloomer. It was exhibited before the Floral Committee 
on May 6th, 1862, when it met with their unanimous approval. The following description 
is given of it in the Gardeners' Chronicle upon the 10th of that month:— 
“ Mr. Barnes, of Southampton Street, Camberwell, contributed a beautiful Azalea named Bride of 
Abydos, the flowers of which are large, white, flaked with pink, and possess great substance. Of this 
variety three plants were exhibited, all excellent in habit and evidently free in growth.” 
In the Gardeners' Chronicle of December 27th, 1862, page 1217, in describing the new 
and most prominent Azaleas of the above year, are the following remarks :— 
“ As a free-flowering sort, of vigorous habit, adapted for decoration and exhibition, the Bride of Abydos 
is the most useful which has appeared amongst the whites, with occasional streaks of red.” 
Fine strong Grafted plants will be ready on the above date at 21s. and 31s. 6d. each. 
PURITY is a beautiful clear white, fine large flower, with unusual substance, and of the 
most perfect shape; it is of a fine robust habit. A variety of this description has long been 
required—viz., a pure white, with fine shape, large flowers, and good vigorous habit. Plants 
will be ready on the above date at 21s. and 31s. 6d. each. 
A few plants of each variety to offer in extra large plants, prices of which can be obtained 
on application to
